I'm gonna smack both of you. Where are you finding chicken for .39 a pound, and most importatly why aren't you posting it in the meat deals thread?

Be careful with the necks, they are easily swallowed whole. Riggs had a turkey neck actually stuck once and I thought I was going to have to give him the heimlic to remove it. He can't have anything but the large turkey neck now unless they are frozen in "bundles." Ruby and Connor actually chew their food so can have just about anything.

Inside me is a thin woman trying to get out. I usually shut the bitch up with a martini.

I found a website that had meat/bone ratios for diff body parts, said that chicken backs are 50% bone. I use them for my bone source and they work well, but chicken necks are too small for my dogs. They maintain good poos at about 25% bone, so I feed them half chicken backs and half meaty meat daily. Works well for them! Plus, chicken backs are DIRT cheap, that's mostly why I use them for my bone source.

Thank you! Do you have that website...I would be really interested in taking a look at it just to figure out the differences in all the parts

Me too. In fact, my great dane eats all of his food frozen solid. He once inhaled an entire chicken back because it was thawed. I have tried the chicken legs and they both just suck up the entire thing, it makes me nervous. Plus, when you feed large food it takes longer to eat and provides more mental stimulation than small food.
